Research Summary
Pierre Degond
RESEARCH METHODOLOGY:
Since the very beginning, my approach has been to use mathematics and mathematical
tools to investigate phenomena outside mathematics, be they natural (physical, biological,
etc.) or artificial (engineered, social, etc.).
I have explored various interfaces of mathematics with the outside world: plasma
physics, semiconductor physics and, more recently, collective dynamics in bio or socio
dynamics. I have mainly focused on Partial Differential Equations of Kinetic Theory and
on other related models (Particle Systems, Hydrodynamic Equations, Diffusion Equations,
etc.). I have investigated various mathematical questions such as model derivation, study
of qualitative properties of the models, numerical methods, etc.
My research is conducted within research projects involving interdisciplinary collaboration and/or partnerships with industrials or state agencies. The latter have led to
consulting appointments (to the French Atomic Energy Commissioner CEA or to the
French Aerospace Research Agency ONERA). These projects involve PhD students who
are co-advised by young permanent researchers. This provides a stimulating working environment to the students and an opportunity for Junior Researchers to train themselves
to student supervision. Among the little more than 40 PhD students that I have advised,
about a half have joined the academic career or a state research laboratory. I have entertained many international research collaborations, either through informal relations or
through international research grants funded by European or National governments.
My current research projects are mainly concerned with collective dynamics and selforganization in the living and social worlds, through both experimental data analysis
and numerical modeling. Such projects are about e.g. spheroid tumor growth, tissue
homeostasis, collective dynamics of sperm cells, applications to economics, etc.
MAJOR RESEARCH ACHIVEMENTS:
We now comment a selection of ten major publications (see list at the end of this section: citation
records relative to MathSciNet and ISI Web of Science are provided for these publications but
reference numbers are identical to those of the complete publication list).
Theory of Kinetic Equations. In [1], with Claude Bardos, we have given the first existence
proof for smooth solutions of the Vlasov-Poisson equations in dimension three for small
initial data. The Vlasov equation is considered as the master equation for plasma physics
and consists of a first-order differential equation in phase-space for the one-particle distribution function. It is coupled nonlinearly to the Poisson equation as charged particles
act as sources to the electric forces which control their motion. Previously, only global
weak solutions or local strong solutions existed in 3D (results by Horst and Hunze). Later
on, in 1992, Pfaffelmoser gave an existence result for global smooth solutions without the
smallness condition, but for about ten years, this work gave the best result. The proof
relies on an original dispersion estimate for transport equations which has had many other
applications. For this reason, this paper has kept a high level of citations. Other works
concerning the theory of Kinetic Equations are e.g. [2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 15, 43].
41
Particle Methods for Kinetic Equations and Vortex Methods. Particle methods
are among the most widely used numerical methods for kinetic equations, due to the
high dimensionality of the problem. They are also very popular in incompressible gas
dynamics where they carry the name of vortex methods. Particle methods are very easy
to derive for pure convection problems. They basically consist in moving Dirac delta
along the characteristics of the equation. By contrast, the treatment of collision terms (in
kinetic models) or of diffusion terms (in viscous incompressible fluid dynamics), leads to a
significantly increased complexity. In [9], in collaboration with S. Mas-Gallic, we propose
a particle treatment of convection-diffusion equations relying first on an approximation of
the diffusion by an integral kernel, and second on the approximation of this integral kernel
by a modification of the particle weights. This methods has had a huge success in fluid
dynamics (where it is known as the “Particle Strength Exchange (PSE)” method). The
difference in citations between the ISI Web of Sciences and MathSciNet database shows
that this method has had a large impact outside mathematics. Other works dealing with
particle methods can be found in [7, 10, 11, 12, 23].
Conforming Finite-Element Methods for Maxwell Equations. In [26], in collaboration
with P. A. Raviart and researchers from the Atomic Energy Commissionner CEA, we
have proposed one of the first conforming finite element methods for the time-dependent
Maxwell equations. Previous works mainly used either finite difference methods (such
as the Yee method) or edge finite element methods of Nédélec type. Our target was to
couple the Maxwell equations with a Particle-in-Cell (PIC) discretization of the Vlasov
equation in view of modeling vacuum diodes and tubes. Due to these constraints, previous
methods were inappropriate: the complex geometry of the problem required unstructured
meshes and edge methods generate too rough fields which produce unacceptable noise in
particle trajectories. One particularity of the method is to treat the divergence constraints
on the fields by means of Lagrange multipliers. This allowed for imperfect satisfaction
of the charge continuity equation, a situation often encountered in the context of PIC
methods. This work continues to have a large impact, particularly beyond the mathematics
community, as the large citation rate on the ISI database indicates. Various developments
of this method are given in [40, 45]
Diffusion Models for Semiconductors. For a long time, the standard semiconductor
model has been the “Drift-Diffusion model”, which describes charged carrier electrical
drift and thermal diffusion. But this model is inappropriate for micro and nano devices
which operate far from thermodynamical equilibrium. In [38], in collaboration with N. Ben
Abdallah, we derive a hierarchy of diffusion models for semiconductors away from equilibrium. This hierarchy encompasses the so-called “Fokker-Planck - Spherical Harmonics
Expansion” and the “Energy-Transport” models, which have been extensively used in the
semiconductor literature. These models pre-existed to our work but, for the first time, we
provide a rigorous ’dictionary’ which relates the transport coefficients to the underlying
microscopic interactions between the particles. The derivation is based on an assumption
of scale separation between the various collision phenomena and the application of diffusion
approximation techniques. This work has had a large impact and has still a high citation
rate. It has been followed by a series of works, either on modeling [34, 54, 56, 62, 66, 72],
or on mathematical theory [46, 50, 61, 75], or on numerics [60].
42
Quantum Macroscopic Models Derived from the Entropy Principle. Quantum Kinetic models are based on the Wigner Equation, which is an extension of the classical
Vlasov equation. However, simple quantum frameworks describing particle interactions
are scarce and complex. For this reason, no general first-principles derivation of Quantum
Macroscopic Models existed. In [76], in collaboration with C. Ringhofer, we have used
an entropy-based moment closure approach in the spirit of Levermore’s method for the
classical case. The moment equations (such as the mass, momentum and energy conservations) are closed by the distribution which realizes the extremum of the quantum entropy
subject to the given moment constraints. The difficulty is the non-local character of the
quantum entropy (by contrast to the classical case) which results in non-local closure relations. This work has had a big impact, as the high citation rate testifies. It has provided
the first ever derivation of quantum macroscopic models based on first principles. Various
asymptotic regimes allow to recover previously derived models using heuristic methods.
It has had many follow-ups, including [91, 105, 120]. Related quantum transport models
can be found in [42, 48, 68, 74, 89].
Asymptotic-Preserving (AP) Schemes for Plasmas, Low Mach-Number Flows and
Strongly Anisotropic Elliptic Problems. AP schemes have first been introduced by
S. Jin. They are schemes for singular perturbation problems which are consistent to the
limit problem, in the limit of the small perturbation parameter keeping the discretization
parameters fixed. When the perturbation parameter changes locally from order unity
to very small, the AP scheme realizes an automatic transition between the perturbation
problem and its limit problem. In [106], in collaboration with P. Crispel and M.-H. Vignal, an AP scheme for the Euler-Poisson problem of plasma physics is proposed. The
scheme has proved very powerful to describe breakdown of quasineutrality which occurs
at plasma edges. AP-schemes have been applied to non-magnetized and magnetized plasmas [125, 133, 140, 149, 152, 154, 157], low Mach-number flows [142, 159] and strongly
anisotropic elliptic problems [137, 151, 155]. AP-schemes and the hybrid Kinetic-Fluid
coupling strategies of [88, 95, 100, 118, 144, 141, 153] can be combined for optimal efficiency. They provide very efficient numerical methods for kinetic problems at the transition
between the purely kinetic and fluid regimes, which is a notoriously difficult problem.
Fluids with Geometric Exclusion: the Example of Car Traffic. Geometric exclusion refers to the impossibility of finite-sized particles to interpenetrate each other. It
is important in systems exhibiting collective dynamics such as biological tissues, animal
groups, vehicular traffic or human crowds. Geometric exclusion generates a phase transition which occurs at a critical “jamming” density between a compressible phase and an
incompressible one where particles are in contact with each other. The boundary of the
incompressible phase depends on the dynamics itself and cannot be predicted a priori. The
study and computation of fluids with geometric exclusion is very challenging. In [122], in
collaboration with F. Berthelin, M. Delitala and M. Rascle, we have proposed a general
methodology and applied it to a model of car traffic. It consists in using a smooth pressure
which blows up near the approach of the jamming density. This work has received significant attention, as the citation rate testifies. This approach has been further developed in
[128, 129, 138, 145, 164], notably in the direction of multi-dimensional models. Related
problems in the modeling of supply-chains have been treated in [96, 102, 110, 112].
43
Self-Organized Hydrodynamics of Active Particle Systems. Systems of active, or selfpropelled particles can be found in nature in animal swarms, bacterial suspensions, sperm,
etc. Such particles extract energy from an external source to produce motion. Therefore,
their collective motion violates momentum and energy conservations, which poses an outstanding problem to derive macroscopic equations, since conservation is the key concept
expressed in macroscopic equations. In [123], with S. Motsch, we have designed a new tool
to bypass this problem: the “Generalized Collision Invariant (GCI)”. Thanks to this new
concept, we derive the hydrodynamic limit of the Vicsek model describing self-propelled
particles interacting through local alignment. The resulting model, the“Self-Organized
Hydrodynamics (SOH)” exhibits major differences with classical hydrodynamics: the velocity is constrained to stay of unit norm and Galilean invariance is lost. The SOH models
presents a wealth of challenging open problems. This paper has received a high rate of
citations since its publication. The concept of GCI has been applied to other active particle models in [127, 147, 165, 167, 170]. It also provides a first-principles derivation of the
Landau-Lifchitz-Gilbert equation of micro-magnetism [156].
Relating Models and Data: Crowd Dynamics. In [158], we report on experimental
and modeling studies of crowd behavior. The goal is to understand how local interactions
among individuals give rise to a spontaneous self-organization into lanes. We have studied
this phenomenon experimentally and shown that structural instabilities reduce the payoff
provided by the traffic segregation. This work has been published in a high impact factor journal. It illustrates what constitutes one of the avenues for applied mathematics in
the future years. The tremendous increase of available data will require new methodologies to decipher their complexity. In this quest, mathematicians, aside with statisticians,
physicists and computer scientists will play a crucial role. This requires the building of
interdisciplinary teams collecting complementary expertise. In companion works, models
for crowd behavior have been designed [148, 164, 244] and forthcoming works are devoted
to the derivation of macroscopic models inspired from the microscopic model described in
[158]. Other traffic systems have been investigated (beyond car traffic as described above),
such as ant traffic and the formation of trail networks [161].
Symmetry-Breaking Phase Transitions. In the recently published paper [163], we investigate symmetry-breaking phase transitions which occur in polymers, liquid crystals,
suspensions of rod-shaped bacterias or self-propelled particles such as insects swarms, etc.
In such a transition, the system changes from a state where the particle directions are
uniformly distributed (isotropic phase) to a state where almost all particles point in a
given direction (directed phase). In [163] we investigate such transitions in the Vicsek
model (see above). This is an important problem because the macroscopic properties of
the system in the two phases are very different, being of diffusive type in the isotropic
phase and of hydrodynamic type in the directed phase, as shown in [163]. In the companion paper, [166], we investigate the order of the phase transition and relate it to the
alignment frequency. In the case of first order phase transition, the system exhibits a
hysteresis behavior. This paper brings a rigorous perspective to a controversy which has
long agitated the physics community about the order of the phase transition appearing in
the Vicsek dynamics.

Teaching Summary
Pierre Degond
SUMMARY OF TEACHING HISTORY AND METHODOLOGY:
I am currently a Chair Professor in Applied Mathematics at Imperial College London.
In 2013-2014, I am in charge of the 4-th year (2nd term) undergraduate course M4M8
”Advanced topics in Partial Differential Equations” and I am the tutor of 1st year students.
In spite of having held a research position at CNRS most of my past career, I have
been strongly involved in teaching activities through all this period. Additionally, before
my current Professor position at Imperial College, I held teaching positions at two occasions: as a part-time Assistant Professor at Ecole Polytechnique (1988-1990) and as a Full
Professor at Ecole Normale Supérieure de Cachan (1990-1993).
In the period preceding my apointment at Imperial College, as a counterpart of the
Scientific Excellence Premium of CNRS that I had since 2010, I had to perform one third
of a teaching duty of a normal French Full Professor at University (i.e. between 40 and
60 hours of classes a year, depending on the proportion of exercise classes). During this
period, I have strongly committed myself in the organization of the new Second Year
Master, Research Specialization “Fundamental and Applied Mathematics” of Université
Paul Sabatier, Toulouse, which has started in fall 2011. Within this curriculum, I have set
up a “Math-Bio” Major and have also been involved in the “Partial Differential Equations”
Major (teaching the basic course of this Major). I have also a teaching appointment in a
nearby engineering school.
I like teaching, especially because of the opportunity of contact with talented young
people it provides. I like to challenge them during the class, by asking them their idea of
how to perform a proof, or making polls about what should be the right answer. I also
like to ask questions of general culture, sometimes beyond mathematics, such as questions
about orders of magnitude of physics phenomena. I take particular care in preparing
lectures and writing lectures notes, which I make downloadable from my web page. I try
to make myself accessible to them, and to lower the generation barrier between us. I do
my best to convey the image of mathematics as a hot and exciting topic.
On several occasions, I have taken care of teaching organization. Currently, I am the
Chairman of the “Math-Bio” Major of the Second Year Master “Fundamental and Applied Mathematics” of Université Paul Sabatier, Toulouse. I have also held the Chairman
position of the Second Year Master of Université Paul Sabatier in the period 2001-2005,
and longer ago, that of the Chairman of the Teaching Department at the Ecole Normale
Supérieure de Cachan (1991-1993).
